Essential oil products are increasingly used in indoor environments and have been found to negatively contribute air quality. Moreover, the chemicals fragrances emitted by those may affect central nervous system cognitive function. This study uses a double-blind between-subject design investigate impact of exposure emissions from essential an ultrasonic diffuser. In simulated office environment where other environmental parameters were maintained constant, 34 female 25 male university...

Low-cost air quality monitors are increasingly being deployed in various indoor environments. However, data of high temporal resolution from those sensors often summarized into a single mean value, with information about pollutant dynamics discarded. Further, low-cost suffer limitations such as lack absolute accuracy and drift over time. There is growing interest utilizing science machine learning techniques to overcome take full advantage sensors. In this study, we developed an unsupervised...

The benefits of nanofibrous media have been extensively explored in laboratory-scale research but are less clear real filtration applications. Thus, this study investigated the links between size-resolved efficiency mounted portable air cleaners a chamber test and results from cone-shape filter holder more conventional duct test. Results showed similar trend for curves these two experimental tests, despite differences type, challenge aerosol, instrumentation, calculation efficiency....

Decentralized water treatment consists of a variety techniques for dwellings, industrial facilities, homes, and businesses independent the power grid. According to United States Geological Survey, brackish groundwater is abundant in southwestern states including California; hence it can potentially be considered new source California’s portfolio. Most membrane-based desalination technologies (e.g. reverse osmosis) have high energy demand cost. Using renewable (mostly solar photovoltaics)...

Ultrasonic essential oil diffusers (EODs) are a popular type of indoor scenting source. We performed chamber study in which we measured the emissions from EODs used with lemon, lavender, eucalyptus, and grapeseed oils. Over course 15 min, most abundant VOCs released oils were 2.6 ± 0.7 mg d-limonene, 3.5 0.4 eucalyptol, 1.0 0.1 linalyl acetate, 0.2 0.02 respectively. Each had unique particulate matter (PM) emission profile terms size, number density, rate. The dominant size ranges PM 10–100...
